The World Energy Council - Indian Member Committee (WEC - IMC) and the Energy Saving Commission of the World Foundrymen Organization (ESC - WFO) signed a Memorandum of Association on 6th April 2009 to facilitate the adoption of environment friendly energy efficiency for sustainable growth with special focus on the steel sector. In line with this focus, as envisaged in the MoA, the South Asia Forum for Energy Efficiency (SAFEE) has been constituted as a team of experts to study and suggest ways and means to improve the efficiency of energy use in the steel industry with minimal adverse impact on the environment. As an initial task for itself, SAFEE has proposed to conduct a study on Energy Conservation in foundry and the SME steel sector, that will address issues pertaining to environmental sustainability of these sectors.
